Basics: Shared &
custom categories

EPage runs classified ad and auction services for thousands of affiliated
Web sites. Those affiliates can choose to use our "shared"
(or network) categories, or they can create their own "custom"
categories. Many affiliates choose to do both.

Shared categories are available to all of our affiliates. Gold Members
who place an ad in a shared category have the ad displayed on all affiliate
sites that show that category. Gold Members can also view all ads placed
in a shared category, whether placed by another Gold Member, or by a
Standard Member. Standard Members see only ads placed in a category
through that affiliate site, or by Gold Members through any affiliate
site.

Custom categories are created by an affiliate. These generally reflect
topics specific to the affiliate's Web site - for example a specific
collectible item, or a category for a specific location.
